Time to Meet our 2nd Quarter Guest Designers for 2017!

Hello and happy Monday folks!It is April and that means our Guest Designers for the 2nd quarter of 2017 will be beginning very soon!

In an effort to help our guests feel
like they are more a part of the main team, we will be continuing to showcase
their work right alongside our blog team in our Thursday inspiration
line-up just like we have done during the previous two quarters. Generally, you
will be seeing their work during the 2nd &
4th weeks of the month, which is consistent with how it has always been.
However, depending on how busy our guests get with extra projects, you
might see their work during other Thursdays as well, possibly see some of their
creations as part of a New Release line-up or even during our fourth Saturday of the month Challenge Reminder. You'll just
have to keep a look out for them so you don't miss any of their
incredible creations!

So on that note, how about we get to know the two amazing designers who will be joining us for the next three months?!

Hi! My name is Debi, and I am thrilled to be joining the Design Team as a guest at Imagine That Digistamp. Card making has opened up a wonderful world for me. My dear husband, of 35 years, always worried about what I would do with my time when I retired. Now it is filled with stamps, paper, blogging, and fabulous crafty new friends. Different techniques and fancy folds intrigue me. Most of the cards I make are geared toward children and go to Send A Smile 4 Kids. Occasionally, I teach card classes for a group of Red Hat friends - feathers, bling and tons of fun! I also enjoy crocheting, sewing, baking, sudoku puzzles, and reading (you'll find an occasional book review on my blog among the card posts).

Here is a previous card that Debi created using an image and sentiment from

Debi has created a fabulously fun card. I love all that 'dust' that she added and of course the great texture on her embossed panel as well. She has also used some really cool embellishments that add the perfect finishing touches to her card.

Hello, my name is Miranda and I live in Idaho in the United States with my husband, Cody, and our two cats, Miss Kitty and Miss Mow. Please don’t let my lack of naming abilities affect your thoughts on my creative skills! I have been crafting forever. My mother is a wonderful artist and seamstress and I started crafting because of her.

I love to draw, sew, paper craft, woodwork (thanks Dad and Grandpa) and anything else that can get my craftiness going! I have been focused on card making for a while now. There are so many fun techniques and I love the versatility. I am so excited to be a part of the guest team!

Here is a previous card that Miranda created using an image and sentiment from

Miranda has designed a really sweet card. I truly like the texture of the material that she used in the background. I also like how she distressed and edged the base of the sentiment. The double rows of stitching on the image layer and cute little bow all add the perfect finishing touches.

Welcome ladies!

Please join me in welcoming Debi & Miranda as our guests for the second quarter
of the year. I look forward to seeing what they have in store for us during their time here and hope that
you all do as well. Please pop by and visit them on their
personal blogs if you have the chance. Simply click on the respective
blog links found under each of their names above.
